Recently, XQuader surprised us with the news that it has ported the Nintendo DS emulator (DraStic) for the GarlicOS and MinUI Custom Firmwares, and although it is still in a very early phase of development, it seems to work wonderfully.

JoJones88 contacted me via Discord recently to inform me that the Port of Wolfenstein Spear of Destiny that we had on the page only allowed one episode of the game to be played, and that they had created an update in which we could play all the episodes.
So after providing me with the necessary files, we have re-uploaded and updated them so that we can enjoy them, so it is now available for download in our Ports for GarlicOS section.

A few days ago, XQuader sent me an update of this application for our consoles, music player, which now also:

And you can also connect the HDMI whenever you want, without having to plug it in before turning on the console! (Or at least that’s what I understood, since I haven’t been able to test it yet)
